(May 12, 2023) - Jury sentenced Salvador Vasquez-Oliva to death
Sacramento County jurors on Friday returned a verdict of death for Salvador Vasquez-Oliva, 62, Hispanic, for the March 22, 2017 slayings of his wife, 45-year-old Angelique Vasquez; their 2 young children, 14-year-old Mia and 11-year-old Alvin Vasquez; and his niece, 21-year-old Ashley Coleman
The 4 victims were discovered inside of the home Vasquez-Oliva shared with his wife and kids on 35th Avenue in South Land Park. Officers with the Sacramento Police Department responded to the home after another family member requested a welfare check at the address. All four victims were pronounced dead at the scene.
Vasquez-Oliva, who was a technician in California’s Employment Development Department for more than a decade at the time of the murders, confessed to the killings while speaking to a family member in San Francisco, according to a report from The Sacramento Bee. That family member then reportedly notified authorities as to his whereabouts.
Vasquez-Oliva is scheduled to appear before Superior Court Judge Michael W. Sweet on Aug. 25 for his formal sentencing.
